clickbaiter

A person or website that posts eye-catching headlines for stories that aren't very accurate or just plain made up, in the hope that they'll go viral on social media, bringing in ad revenue. Also, a generator of fake news that frequently claims to be doing "satire" when called out for just making up outrageous shit.

He fancies himself a hip satirist, but he's really just a second-rate clickbaiter.

Alzhumor's Disease

A condition of older people that prevents them from seeing the humor in things that younger people find hilarious.

Uncle George left the room when we put in the "Office Space" DVD. I think he's got Alzhumor's Disease.

vulch 

For a cat, to sit near a person eating a meal with body language suggestive of a vulture waiting for something to die, esp. if done from a higher vantage point.

I didn't dare leave the table before finishing my ribs, because my three cats were vulching nearby.
